Light and Dark

'Light and Dark' is a child's song that is sung whilst playing a hand-game among children in Almusia. The exact words have altered some over time, and the hand movements are constantly changing, evolving and adapting with the children that play them, but the concept of the song has remained the same.
Light and Dark tells the story of how the first thirteen Gods of Syshir were born. There is some debate concerning whether or not they should be considered 'the first'. The myth of The First details beings that are widely considered to not be a part of the thirteen. Some religious scholars and theologists would argue that Krst'kylae and Aklen'th are primordials of the aether, rather than the beings that are known today as deities.
In the story, Light and Dark combine together and from the grey resulted thirteen concepts, born in the below order:

1. Elements
2. Balance
3. Sun
4. Moon
5. Nature
6. Time
7. Knowledge
8. Wisdom
9. War
10. Death
11. Attraction
12. Unity
13. Creation

A current version sung today with a clapping pattern that involves three or more children as quoted below. The original song likely would have mentioned how the thirteen concepts emerged from Light and Dark, but in order to create a 'game' from the song, the introduction appears to have been altered over time to incorporate a repetitive phrase to set the beat of the clapping. Each successful completed round, and the song should increase in speed.

three three three
ten ten ten
mess it up and we start again
the elements and balance and the sun and the moon
nature and time 'fore knowin' and thinkin'
not too long then war and death
but the goddess of love made it worth the rest
all get together then the 'shir were born
then we start from the beginning again
